Returning from the Sea

I love the sea. It touches me in places beyond reaching.
Its waves I find can fill my mind with lessons beyond teaching.
It calls my heart. It bids me start a journey toward living...
Sings in my ears, erodes my fears. Always giving, giving.

It fills my soul. Makes me feel whole. Awash with foaming wonder.
It calls me on, dares me beyond; life's mysteries to ponder.
It cries at me. Surprises me. Floods past my walls and fences.
It pushes and with swirling sand enlivens all my senses.

I am alone. I will go home.
The ocean bids me go.
A mum. A wife. My other life.
Today, it must be so.
